London Car Diary

I spent the weekend in London, and was amazed by the number of high-end cars I saw driving around. Here's a diary of some of the things I've seen, very notably the Bugatti Veyron and Ferrari F40. There are many cars I saw that I wasn't able to get pictures of like a Mercedes SLR, Aston Martin Vantage/Vanquish, and many others...but I think these pictures will be good enough! It was not unordinary to see 20+ Bentley's, 10+ Ferrari's, and a few Lamborghini's in a day. There were more Mercedes and BMW's driving around then any other car make. It was like a rolling car show. Now without further delay, the pics: Bentley Longbase. Bentley Interior. Older V12 Jag. Ferrari F430 Sighted! Maserati. Civic - Euro Style Aston Martin DB7 Maserati BMW M5 Interesting modified Benz Smart Car - Brabus Edition SL55 AMG - I saw a few SL65 AMG's, but I wasn't able to get a picture. Porsche Turbo Can't remember who makes this, but it's an electric car smaller than a smart car. Vauxhall Astra - what I believe the Saturn Sky is based on in terms of front-end looks? Another Ferrari spotted. MG TF. Defender. Best picture I got of a Porsche Cayman New Ford Focus SVT Awesome Porsche. I believe the rear badge said RF? Post a comment if you know what kind this is. Porsche Cayenne Gemballa GT Rolls Royce dealership with a couple of Phantom's. Bentley was right next door. 1 of around 70 Bugatti Veyron's ($1.1M) parked next to a Rolls Royce Phantom ($320k base price). Front shot of the Bugatti Veyron 07' S65 AMG Mercedes. MSRP starting at $182,275. Lamborghini of London Ferrari dealership A night shot of a Ferrari F40 driving around Oxford Street! I believe this is the TVR Sagaris - I was only able to get this picture. I saw a few other TVR's throughout the weekend, but didn't have the camera out in time. Acura NSX - aka Honda NSX Nissan 350Z - JDM Style Lime Green Lamborghini Gallardio At Harrod's Bentley Continental GT - This was by far the car of choice in London, this was the high-end car most seen. Continental Flying Spur Longbase Ferrari Superamerica Ferrari 612 Scagelietti BMW 1-Series The new BMW M6 One of the many Ferrari F430's seen during the weekend. This seemed to be the Ferrari of choice in London. Older Rolls Royce Maserati Quattroporte BMW 5-Series Police Car. I didn't grab a picture, but I also saw a new bodystyle 5-series police car....quite sexy, although not as sexy as a Lamborghini Gallardo police car. Aston Martin DB9 Rear Aston Martin DB9 Front Lamborghini Gallardo Sweet Range Rover Sport BMW 8 Series Ferrari 360 Modena Rear Ferrari 360 Modena Front Alfa Romeo, which will be coming to the US Alfra Romeo Front Shot A few Lambo's for your pleasure Smart Car Roadster Silvia Style

i'd pop a boner right on the sidewalk if i saw some of these rides in person. definitely some sick sightings. i get all hyped up if i see an EVO or another SER or something, i couldn't imagine loads of lambos and ferraris.

im headin to italy early next year, ill be happy if i see half the whips you did.

The Porsche is a Ruf. It is a Porsche tuner similair to Saleen with Ford. But they make conversions as well as taking 911's from the factory and converting them theirselves, even giving them their own new VIN #s. A RUF 911 is an awesome car that carries a heavier price tag than the original. Good pics!
